Dollander (elbow) is trying to schedule a follow-up exam with Dr. Keith Meister, MLB.com reports. Dollander has been sidelined since May 15 with a right elbow sprain, and he was originally scheduled to be shut down for two- to-three weeks. The report suggests that surgery still isn't a possibility, but instead that Dollander and the team want all of the information before moving forward with his recovery plan. Even if Dollander does avoid surgery, he looks likely to remain sidelined into the second half of the season.

Tyler Dollander: Breaking News
Shut down for 2-to-3 weeks
Rockies manager Warren Schaeffer said Wednesday that Dollander (elbow) will be shut down from throwing for the next 2-to-3 weeks, MLB.com reports. Dollander landed on the 15-day injured list last week due to a right elbow sprain. He will opt for a rest-and-rehab treatment plan for the time being, though it will take a while for Dollander to rebuild his stamina following the shutdown period. A timetable for Dollander's return won't become clearer until he starts ramping up his throwing again.
Shelved by elbow sprain
The Rockies placed Dollander on the 15-day injured list Friday with a right elbow sprain. Dollander was hurt during Thursday's start versus the Pirates, forcing his exit in the second inning. A diagnosis of a sprain implies that Dollander is dealing with some UCL damage, though it's unclear at this point whether he will require surgery. Even if he doesn't the righty is likely looking at an extended absence. Tanner Gordon could take Dollander's spot in the Rockies' rotation, at least until Ryan Feltner (elbow) is ready.
